Knowledge, Attitude, Practice, and Determinants of Community Health Workers' Involvement Toward NCD Prevention and Control in Northern Tanzania: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Despite the vital role of CHWs toward NCDs prevention and control, their engagement in NCDs screening and community mobilization is still low in northern Tanzania. Professional training among in-service and newly enrolled CHWs, encouragement of weekly home visits, and NCDs' capacity-building programs in terms of skills and accessibility of screening tools should be implemented among CHWs to enhance their involvement in NCDs prevention and control.

Abstract

Despite the vital role of CHWs toward NCDs prevention and control, their engagement in NCDs screening and community mobilization is still low in northern Tanzania. Professional training among in-service and newly enrolled CHWs, encouragement of weekly home visits, and NCDs' capacity-building programs in terms of skills and accessibility of screening tools should be implemented among CHWs to enhance their involvement in NCDs prevention and control.
